Senior Platform Software Engineer, AI Acceleration, Developer Tools

We are looking for engineers who are excited to experiment, prototype, learn

quickly, and turn promising ideas into production-quality software. You will

have opportunities to work with LLMs, AI agents, reasoning systems, context and

retrieval techniques, evaluation systems, and intelligent automation while

solving real developer productivity problems.

Success in this role requires curiosity and strong engineering fundamentals. You

should be comfortable working on problems where the requirements or technical

approach may not initially be clear. You will collaborate with senior engineers,

product managers, AI/ML teams, and OCI service teams to explore potential

solutions, validate assumptions through experimentation, and determine which

ideas can deliver meaningful improvements to the developer experience.

As a Senior Software Engineer, you will own significant components from design

through production. You will contribute to architecture and technical decisions,

build prototypes to evaluate new approaches, and develop scalable services and

platform capabilities that turn successful AI experiments into reliable

developer experiences.

RESPONSIBILITIES

* Design and build AI-powered developer tools and platform capabilities that

improve developer productivity across software development, testing,

debugging, delivery, and operational workflows.

* Experiment with emerging AI technologies by building prototypes, evaluating

models and agentic approaches, testing hypotheses, and using results to

determine which ideas should progress toward production.

* Develop production services integrating LLMs, AI agents, context and

retrieval systems, tool integrations, orchestration, evaluation, and

intelligent automation.

* Own substantial components through the complete engineering lifecycle,

including design, implementation, testing, deployment, observability,

operations, and continuous improvement.

* Work effectively in ambiguous problem spaces, breaking broad problems into

tractable engineering challenges, evaluating alternatives, and iterating as

requirements and technologies evolve.

* Contribute to architecture and design discussions, working with senior

technical leaders to develop solutions that are scalable, extensible, secure,

reliable, and cost-efficient.

* Build mechanisms to evaluate the effectiveness of AI-powered experiences,

using automated evaluation, telemetry, experimentation, and developer

feedback to improve quality and reliability.

* Collaborate across engineering, product, AI/ML, and OCI service teams to

integrate platform capabilities and deliver end-to-end developer experiences.

* Investigate complex technical issues across distributed systems and AI

components, identify root causes, and implement durable solutions.

* Contribute to a strong engineering culture through thoughtful design and code

reviews, technical documentation, knowledge sharing, and mentoring other

engineers.

Required Qualifications

* 5+ years of software engineering experience designing, building, and

operating production software systems.

* Strong programming and software engineering skills, with experience building

distributed systems, cloud services, developer infrastructure, platform

services, or large-scale backend systems.

* Experience with or strong demonstrated interest in LLMs, generative AI, AI

agents, or related AI technologies, including the engineering considerations

involved in integrating AI capabilities into software products.

* Demonstrated willingness to experiment and learn in rapidly evolving

technical areas, including building prototypes, evaluating alternatives,

using data to validate assumptions, and adapting based on results.

* Ability to work effectively with ambiguous requirements, independently break

down complex problems, make sound engineering tradeoffs, and drive

substantial technical work to completion.

* Experience designing and delivering reliable production software, including

considerations around APIs, scalability, testing, observability, performance,

security, and operational excellence.

* BS or MS in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related technical

field, or equivalent practical experience.

Desired Qualifications

* Experience building AI-powered developer tools, coding assistants or agents,

intelligent testing or debugging systems, developer automation, or developer

productivity platforms.

* Practical experience with LLMs, agentic workflows, tool use, context

engineering, retrieval, inference, model APIs, or AI evaluation techniques.

* Experience with cloud-native and distributed systems technologies, including

containers, orchestration, service APIs, messaging, data stores, and

production observability.

* Experience using experimentation and quantitative evaluation to assess new

technologies or product capabilities and improve them based on measurable

results.

* Demonstrated ability to learn unfamiliar technologies quickly, contribute to

technical design discussions, collaborate effectively across teams, and take

ownership of complex engineering problems.
